This is something i've been toying with for a while. Had a few demos working (For flashpoint) but nothing releasable yet.

Hopefully we'll get some British winter troops to go with them Excelent work as always Rock.

I'm working on one. More details soon...

I wonder how many (Ex)British soldiers will disagree with you a few of those points...

Given the fact it uses an upgraded version of Flashpoint engine and they trying to be as realistic as possible I would be shocked if it was taken out. Plus in programming/design terms it would be easier to leave it in given the stars haven't changed much what would they replace it with anyway...

Does it really matter? I'm sure within a few weeks (at most) of release at lease one Hind will have been ported to ArmA (VIT's hinds for example)

Why do you even need to use the old keys? Seems pretty pointless to me unless you want it to have them running on 2 different machines.

I remember reading that the US military are building an interchange system between all their different simulators (VBS1, multi million $ flight sims, etc)

Groovy, are you editing those pilots too? We definightly need proper british pilots (although those look a bit weird :S ). Looking forward to a release. Tug

Head over to http://www.maxforums.org/ It's a 3D forum with lots of professional and hobbyist modellers. I believe quite a few sell stuff on turbosquid

Great to hear. As for hosting I'll probably end up hosting the master database and having a nice integrated mirroring system for site owners to provide most of the downloads. This is something that will have to be worked out with mirror sites once I have a preview up.

Great. Maybe you will be interested in mirroring for the addon system I am developing. http://www.flashpoint1985.com/cgi-bin....t=50038 Let me know if your interested and hopefully we can come to some sort of arrangement. Thanks, Tug

Yup, I'm working on the system architecture. Note: i'm not affiliated with OFPEC or CoC. But have been talking to BN880 and Spinor for ideas and support. Hopefully by end of this month I should have a site up so we can start importing data. The desktop application / test will take longer.

I'm devising a few plans to enable older addons to be avilable for old mission etc. Use of mod folders and integrating a launcher etc. Client wise it will have at least an open API. Server wise i don't feel it's really any need to make it availble.

Thanks Spinor. Took the words right out of my mouth I agree it would be ideal to have the download support built into AA but that may or may not be practicable. The reviewing etc. was not something i was initially planning on building in. So purely registration, version and depandancy info of each the addons. Also, I'm planning to have plugin support for multiple games. For the geeks : In addition, the system will have Web Service interfaces so if BI saw fit they could build support directly into AA. @BN880 & Spinor if you guys fancy helping out with some advisory discussion etc outside of the forums i would appreciate it. Let me know on PM Also anyone else who has some related ideas drop them here or PM me.
